Jesus For President by Shane Claiborne | |
 | Jesus for President is Shane Claiborne's second book after The Irresistible Revolution. This first book has given Shane a fast track to prominence and he's found a considerable following here in the UK with his regular trips to Greenbelt amongst others. I think Brits like American Christians that aren't republican moral majority types such as Tony Campolo and Jim Wallis. |
The Supremacy of Christ in a Postmodern World by John Piper and Justin Taylor | |

Total Church - A radical reshaping around gospel and community | |
 | A radical reshaping around gospel and community. Emerging church movements can be strong on community but weak on truth; conservative evangelicals can be strong on truth but weak on community. Chester and Timmis call for a new approach which has the best of both worlds. Read ... Total Church - A radical reshaping around gospel and community |
The Reason for God by Tim Keller | |
 | Why does God allow suffering in the world? How could a loving God send people to Hell? Why isn't Christianity more inclusive? How can one religion be "right" and the others "wrong"? Why have so many wars been fought in the name of God? Read ... The Reason for God by Tim Keller |
